7ebra - How to Land a Plane 7ebra

There’s no roadmap for your mid-to-late twenties, and on How to Land a Plane, Swedish twin sisters Inez and Ella Johansson of 7ebra turn that uncertainty into their most compelling work yet. The Malmö duo’s second album explores the insecurities, frustrations and quiet absurdities of early adulthood through their most immediate and expansive songwriting to date.

Building on the haunting minimalism of their acclaimed 2023 debut Bird Hour, the new record pairs infectious hooks, buzzing synths and driving rhythms with sharp observations about identity, work, relationships and the pressure of trying to figure life out in an increasingly inhospitable world.

Written in the aftermath of extensive international touring and shaped alongside producer Jens Lindgård, How to Land a Plane captures a band growing into its confidence without losing the vulnerability that first set them apart. Across songs that balance dark humour, self-reflection and late-capitalist anxiety, 7ebra transform personal struggles into hypnotic, emotionally resonant indie pop.

At its core, the album is a testament to the sisters’ singular creative bond, two voices intertwining, challenging and supporting each other, and confirms 7ebra as one of the most distinctive and exciting bands to emerge from Sweden’s indie scene in recent years.
